Choosing a Custom Workroom: What Designers Need To Know

When it comes to custom window treatments, understanding the different types of workrooms and their services is crucial for ensuring project success. Workrooms have different areas of expertise, and some are better equipped to manage the myriad details that go into a window treatment project.

Fabrication Only Workroom

These workrooms focus primarily on the production aspect of window treatments. They may work with both designers and retail clients, offering craftsmanship for various soft furnishing projects. When working with a fabrication-only workroom, designers are responsible for design conceptualization, measurements, fabric and hardware specification, and installation. Any errors in measurement or hardware selection become the designer's responsibility, potentially leading to additional costs and delays.

Full-Service Workroom

With a different approach from fabrication-only, full-service workrooms offer a broader range of support. Their services typically include fabrication of soft window treatments, ordering of custom hard window treatments, measurement services, and installation services. While they provide quality products and handle measurements and installation, designers still need to bring their own window treatment knowledge and design ideas to the table.
